Jaguars release special teams player Kassim Osgood

Osgood a back-up wide receiver was primarily a special teams player with the Jaguars. The Jaguars saved $3 million in cap space by cutting Osgood.

Osgood told Tania Ganguli of the Florida-Union-Times that he understood the Jaguars decision. “I had a high price tag for next year for not being one of their starters, that played a factor into it I think,” Osgood said. “It’s business. When you get later in your years in the NFL, a lot of teams go younger. It’s part of the game.”
